I too have seen high 8's 1/8 mile times and 82 mph traps from stock 5.0s at the track. It does happen but I would not assume they all do that. Without showing his time slip, we really can't tell what happened. Could have been a bad 60'ft or missed shift. Just can't assume.
I can tell you one thing, the modded 14 GT I raced about 3 weeks ago was running right next to me. If they are not quick in stock form, they sure respond well when the mods begin. The 14 I raced only had three mods.

That pretty much sums it up.
Ignorance is bliss I guess. If you really think that one poor example of driving in a 5.0 is representative of how they should run then you have another thing coming. This is coming from a GM guy.
And if you think that your brothers 3V "walking" hard is trapping 1mph slower then you're absolutely retarded.
What does that beast in your sig run Sepno?

Ya that was me I raced stopy for kicks and giggles on street tires vs his slick ply setup. Beat him on the street so I gave him his race at the track. I asked for rematch after I got dr on the car and he has yet to be seen again.
Stoopid elevation.

did not pay attention to the OP's posting. its a crap thread for no reason.
but 82 mph?
my 1980 5 liter trapped 84-85
a full size 73 chevy with 400hp 327 trapped 82
how is it possible to trap that low in a car in 2014?
OP are you sure you are not full of bullshit? 82? i gotta read these threads more often.
82? seriously. OP you are sticking by that trap for either car? the title gave you zero credibility, the words you typed? man you are cool. you are as cool as Hio and shitbag hammer.
